Hey, Florian,

On reading more, I see that I misunderstood what Pelican is - that it's 
another generate-a-static-site tool, like Jekyll, not a dynamic web 
framework. Thus, content would still be maintained in markdown, making 
it easy for the community to submit site changes/patches.

That kind of changes the conversation for me.

So ... I was wondering, is this something that you'd have the time and 
willingness to spearhead, if we went that direction instead of Jekyll? 
The content is already in markdown, and so moving to Pelican should be 
pretty much drop-in.  We have a handful of elements on the site that are 
dynamic-ish (like the sponsor listing) but most of it is just static 
content.

What you do you think?
